Lyrics

[Verse 1] (Lost in Paris) (Lost in Paris) You, shining like a falling star along my way Walking in the streets of Paris I, looking through the city lights, love's like a game I've never felt so lost in Paris I've seen your face everywhere Coming out of nowhere Your shadow's fading away Please don't leave me here this way Once in your lifetime [Chorus] You can free yourself from your state of mind Tell me why you are so scared of me We can build together a place to hide [Verse 2] (Lost in Paris) Now, let me walk along with you just one more time Walking in the streets of Paris Stay, we can wait together for the morning light 'Cause my heart is lost in Paris I've seen your face everywhere Coming out of nowhere Your shadow's fading away Please don't leave me here this way Once in your lifetime [Chorus] You can free yourself from your state of mind Tell me why you are so scared of me We can build together a place to hide [Verse 3] Once in your lifetime [Chorus] You can free yourself from your state of mind Tell me why you are so scared of me We can build together a place to hide [Verse 4] Once in your lifetime [Chorus] You can free yourself from your state of mind Tell me why you are so scared of me We can build together a place to hide
